Technology

We work with technology businesses, businesses enabled by technology and businesses serving technology companies.

If you make use of technology directly or from a third party provider in any form in your day to day operations, we can help with procurement contracts, outsourcing and cost efficiencies, licensing and risk management. Whether you produce technology or provide knowledge, as a primary source of revenue or to support your own business, we can help with strategic partnering, technology strategy, contracts and intellectual property protection. Our lawyers negotiate outsourcing deals, co-development arrangements, and manufacturing and distribution agreements, which place our clients in the best possible positions to succeed. We provide clients with ongoing counseling with respect to formulating an overall licensing strategy as well as a variety of specific licensing issues, such as warranties, indemnities, disclaimers of damages, limitations of liability, enforceability, ownership of intellectual property, source code escrows, export restrictions and license rights in bankruptcy.

Trade Mark and Copyright – We are trademark agents, and as such we advise clients on the selection, protection and enforcement of company names, brand names, slogans and trade marks for Canada and other markets, including registration and licensing. We also assist clients with appropriate counseling and litigation support regarding copyright, consumer protection, unfair competition, advertising and marketing practices.

With the evolution of connectivity and the momentous growth of new companies relying on the Internet for communication, service delivery, marketing and sales, we provide essential legal and strategic support to these growing enterprises and assist them through their day-to-day rush.
